Lawton Nuss had publicly criticized the 2014 law that's at issue in this case.

District Judge Larry Solomon's lawyers want the Kansas Supreme Court to invalidate the entire judicial selection law passed in 2014.

Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt says the state is seeking the recusals because the justices have publicly opposed the law that's the subject of the case.

An attorney for four judges who filed a lawsuit over the court system's budget says his clients want to continue pursuing the case despite an order that will protect the funding.

There are concerns that enforcing the order could jeopardize the budget for the entire Kansas judiciary system.
